Gmac **Settled in full**

[martdj]

First the good news GMAC have settled a claim for £2595.31 in respect of unlawful charges. They initially through their solicitors Eversheds, wanted me to sign a confidentiallity agreement. I said I would on the condition they do the same for the ERC of £4000. The bad news is they would not do that., but have agreed to settle with no confidentiallity agreement.

I have told them that i intend to take out a class action against them for recovery of ERC so lets get the ball rolling and start one, I also want to do the same for recovery of BM erc.

 

Perhaps ZOOt wll know how we go about this

We have a claim against GMAC for charges amounting to £1,700 did you issue proceedings against them? Nice to hear the worm is beginning to turn in the mortgage stakes.

Yes I did issue proceedings and they went all the way to have judgement stayed, after they were late in filing a defence. I remided them about recent directions on abuse of process and thats when they decided to cough up.

several judges have requested that the companies concerned should either prove how many cases they have taken to court and won, and how many claims they have settled within a a stated time period. It is quite obvious. as regards unlawful charges that these companies will abuse the court process in delaying a pay out. basically the courts are saying that they should either defend cases in trial or pay out. I dont know any that have gone to trial.
